Entry Description

Jinling Village is a poverty-stricken village with More than 2,000 “left-behind” children. When I got there, I was surprised to find that all the local people had mastered certain Han Embroidery skills, but their product not sell well because of the old fashion style. So I worked with the Hubei Han Embroidery Association to help revive the local Han Embroidery culture.

In addition to two years of commercial operations, I have recently created a modern typeface, on a trial basis, by extracting the transitional elements in Han Embroidery to pass down the craft in a modern language practically.
